Berry'S Preferred Plated Pistol Bullets .380 Cal .356" 100 Gr Hbrn 1000/Ct
Berry's Preferred Plated Pistol Bullets in .380 caliber are engineered for reloaders who demand consistency and clean shooting without compromise. Built on a swaged lead core and electroplated with copper to final weight, these .356" 100-grain hollow-point rounds eliminate exposed lead entirely—a critical feature if you shoot indoors or care about range safety. The electroplating process bonds the jacket permanently to the core, then the bullets are re-struck to tight specs, ensuring round-to-round uniformity that translates to reliable feeding and predictable accuracy downrange.
Whether you're developing loads for defensive practice, casual plinking, or precision pistol work, Preferred Plated bullets are designed to perform in semi-automatic .380 platforms. The hollow-point design is built for expansion and energy transfer, while the full copper jacket containment means no lead dust or splattering at the firing line. This makes them popular with shooters who frequent indoor ranges where lead exposure and air quality matter.
The 1000-count case is sized for serious reloaders who shoot regularly and value economy without sacrificing quality. With Berry's track record across the industry, these bullets earn their reputation through consistent performance and measurable accuracy—not hype.
